Is the U.S. Using Immigration as a Political Distraction? 🤔
A new CGTN global poll has sparked debate over whether U.S. leaders are weaponizing immigration to cover up systemic governance failures. Over 6,100 respondents weighed in, with a staggering 82.9% agreeing that immigrants are being scapegoated to deflect from America's widening wealth gap and political gridlock.
💔 The Human Cost of Immigration Policies
The survey highlights alarming concerns: 86.2% believe U.S. immigration enforcement systematically violates human rights, citing reports of violent law enforcement and migrant deaths. 'It’s like a dystopian plot twist,' one respondent commented, referencing the administration's threat of military-led deportations—a move 63.9% called 'deeply troubling.'
🗳️ Political Games Over People?
With 86.6% accusing both major U.S. parties of exploiting immigration for votes, the poll suggests a broken system. 'Immigration policies swing like a pendulum with each election,' noted a student participant, reflecting the 81.4% who slammed inconsistent policies as 'indifferent and irresponsible.'
🌐 Global Youth Speak Out
From CGTN's multilingual platforms, young voices criticized the U.S. for fueling social divisions. Over 80% demanded fairer treatment for migrants, arguing that demonizing them as 'job thieves' only deepens racial tensions. As polarization grows, 82.6% fear the immigration debate could fracture U.S. society further.
